Maid divine,
Her name was Peace, and thus
lie ask’d a boon,
O! come to me, thou best bclov’J

To earth, Oh come, andbethy

She drop’d the tear of joy, her
smil* was sweet ;
She said, My Charles, I mav
hot go to thee ;
Those demons flight me, yei’tis

Th*’ Worlds should weep,’tis

THE EXILE FROM FRANCE.
Why memo ve, why strew ye
these flow’rets around.
To yen new sodded grave as
you slowly advance t
In yon new sodded grave (ever
dear be the ground)
I.ies the stranger we love—the
poor exile ftora France.
And i* the poor exile at rest from
his woe,
No longer the sport of misfor
tune and chance ?
Mourn on, village mourners,
mv tears too shall flow
Tor the strangar we lov’d—the
poor exile from France.
Oh ! kind was his nature, though
bitter his fate,
And gay was his converse,
though broken his heait :
No comfort, no hope his heart
could elate,
Though comfort and hope he to
all could impart.
Ever joyless himself, in the joys
of the plain
Still foremost was he. mirth
and pleasure to raise ;
And sad was his sou|, yet how
blithe was his strain
When he sung the glad song of
more fortunate days !
One pleasure he knew, in his
straw cover’d shc-d,
For the snow .beaten beggar his
faggots ;
One tear o! dWght he could drop
on the bread
Which be shar’d with the poor
who were poorer than him.
And when round his heath-bed j
profusely we cast
Every gift, every solace our i
hamlet could bring,
He blest us with sighs, which we
thought were his last,
But he still had a prayer for ;
his country and king.
Poor exile, adieu ! undisturb’d
be thy sleep !
From the feast, from the wake,
from the village-green dance,
llow <j)ft shall we wander, by
tr.pon-light, to weep
O’er the stanjerwe lov’d—the
poor exile from France.
To the church-going bride shall
thy olutn’ry impart .
One pang as her eyes on thy
cold relics glance .
One 10-e tram thy garland, one
teat . • win thv heart,
S.bau and op on the grave of the
exile bom Fiance.
the iorcld STORV,
Antedate cf Lord Kelli).
Lorn Kelly was like his pro
t -type FadUff.“noionly witty
himleif, but the cause oi wit ttl
other nien.“ Mr. Andrew
Balfour, the Scottish advocate,
a man of conhdcrable hu
mour, accompanied by great
formality of manners, hap
pened to be one of a convivial
party, when his lordlhip was
at the head of the table. After
dinner he was allied to ling,
hut absolutely refused to com
ply wnhthe preiling lohcuati
on of the company. At length
lord Kelly told him that he
(houfd not escape ; he mull
either ling a long, tell a Rory,
or drink a pint bumper, Mr.
Balfour, being an abltemious
man, rhofe rather to tell a
florv than incur the forfeit.
“ One day,” fa id he, in a
pompous manner, “ a thief, in
the course of his rounds, law
the door of a church open.
He walked in, thinking that
even there he might lay hold of
something. Having secured
the pulpit cloth, he was re
treating, when lo ! he found
the door shut. After dome
confederation, he adopted the
only means of escape left,
namely, to let himfelf down by
the bell rope. The bell,ofcourle
rang, the people were alarm
ed, and the thief was taken,
jud: as he reached the ground.
When they were dragging h:m
awav, lie looked up, and em
phatically addrelfing the bell,
as I now address your lordship,
“ Had it not been,” fa id he,
“ for your long tongue, and
empty head, I had made my
escape-”
